No charges to be filed in alleged sexual assault

GLEN CARBON - Madison County authorities opted against filing charges Thursday in what police had pursued as a possible sexual assault involving a woman at a mobile home park Wednesday night.

Stephanee Smith, spokeswoman for the State's Attorney's Office, said there was "insufficient evidence."

Sgt. Kevin Hendricks of the Glen Carbon Police Department said earlier that police arrested a suspect, but he declined to discuss the case before meeting with the prosecutor's office.

Police radio traffic said police were seeking a man wanted in an alleged assault about 10:30 p.m. Wednesday on Hampton Drive in the Sunset mobile home park. The man reportedly was armed with a handgun and fled the scene in a green, full-size pickup truck.

Glen Carbon police put out an Illinois State Police Emergency Radio Network broadcast describing the suspect, and an Illinois State Police trooper spotted the suspect's vehicle at the Phillips 66, 4001 S. State Route 159.
